andre-nunes Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Hello everyone,My name is André and I live in Portugal. At the moment I am learning German using an Android app, so far I'm enjoying myself but it can be a tough language at times, it's nothing like English in terms of difficulty. I think that it might be close to Portuguese it terms of difficulty but I was lucky to be born here and have that "asset" as native language I'm learning German because I think it might help me in the future if I emigrate to a different European country, due to the economic crisis living in Portugal might not be the best choice after graduating and German is spoken in many "rich" countries like Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and so on.I hope to help people learning Portuguese here and improve my other languages as well.

You earn points by practicing, it's really fun and it's a different way to learn a language.The last time I checked, you could learn French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese there, but they were working on new languages.Try it and tell me what you think of it.
